Skybase
Skybase develops AI that enables aircraft to operate without pilots, reducing risk and expanding when and where planes can fly. It builds SOFI, an onboard artificial intelligence system designed to enable unmanned air transportation across aircraft types and roles. Skybase positions itself as an aviation technology provider using machine learning and autonomous flight software to convert piloted aircraft into remotely operated or autonomous assets. The company focuses initially on aerial firefighting operators, where extended hours and hazardous conditions create high value for pilotless capability. Skybase aims to increase aircraft utilization and access new commercial and public-safety missions for existing airframes.
